Assessing the safety of the beam energy tracking system (BETS) David Jones david.huw.jones@cern.ch
Content1. BETS, and its role in the LBDS 2. Assessing the safety of BETS
What may happen if something goes wrong Hole in Copper 450GeV p+ beam Verena Kain

X3 X1 X0 X2 Assessing the safety of BETS AVAILABLE FAILED SAFE X3 X1 X0 X2 Internal Dump Request Common-mode failure across all of Common-mode failure across all of the BEM surveillance mechanisms the BEA cards, resulting in an on both cards undetected failure - watchdog timer, CRC check etc X4 X2 X1 X3 AVAILABLE FAILED SILENT No Surveillance Common-mode failure of part of the BEM functionality, on both cards
Conclusions • The BETS system is a safety critical component of the LHC • Progress is being made towards assessing how safe it is
